    The Iraqis, too, under the influence of Russia, give terrorists a "tough", which means that victory is not far off.

      The people will stretch, but they would not be drawn into themselves. Well, if everything is limited to air strikes and the work of specialists. Although the Russian base in El Fao or Basra would not hurt. Persian Gulf, you know - one name is associated with big money smile

      examples of temporary unions, as goals are transformed to complete antagonism, in the history of a dime a dozen. Nobody reaches for anyone. Baghdad was against the withdrawal of the Americans and would like them to be firmly bogged down in Iraq. Did not happen. Now the hope is on us. The position of the United States picking with a stick in a termite maker instead of burning it with a napalm fuck fits into their logic.

    He himself communicated a lot with the Iraqis; for a long time they were delighted with Russia. I think it’s not easy to establish contacts with them, but also simply necessary. The people suffered, they needed such an outlet as friendship with Russia.

    The success of the militia is good, but the attempt to use, albeit "homemade", but nevertheless dangerous, chemical weapons is very bad. And I have the word homemade in quotes because gaseous chlorine and amateur performance or the right homemade, things are quite difficult to match. winked

    Some nonsense. Likely 30 landmines were prepared, representing a cylinder of chlorine and explosives. This is too little to create lethal concentration even on a small section of the front. To exert psychological pressure on the enemy and the population, but no more.
    I wonder where they got it?

    Py.Sy. During the well-known German gas attack in the WWII, 5000 cylinders with approximately 200 tons of liquefied chlorine were used.

    INTERFAX.RU - The Istanbul police have detained about 50 foreigners, half of whom are children, who were trained in training centers created by the militants of the terrorist organization Islamic State banned in the Russian Federation, Zvezda TK reports with reference to the Vatan newspaper.

    During the anti-terrorist raid in connection with the terrorist attack in Ankara, the police liquidated a training center in the Pendik region. The detainees were preparing to go to Syria to join ISIS militants. Among them, police found 24 teenagers from Uzbekistan and Tajikistan.

    According to Vatan, ISIS agents trained militants from children under the age of 18 in the basements of residential buildings in the Asian quarters of Istanbul. It turned out that they were taught radical Islam and the rules of life in the "Islamic State". In August, the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan swore allegiance to ISIS. According to the newspaper, more than XNUMX Uzbeks are currently fighting on the side of militants in Syria.

      They are also fed by Qatar and Saudi Arabia, and they are the main sponsors. States are their roof.
      It’s just now that you need to make the most of the initial shock received by the sponsors, roofers and the igilovites themselves.
      Increase the number of airstrikes from the air and develop the offensive of the Syrian and Iraqi armies on the ground, until they get well and regroup, until they have time to set up new logistics for the supply and interaction of militants. Any negotiations and contacts there, like some kind of Geneva-1 (by analogy with Minsk 1-2) should not reduce the intensity of pressure on the positions of terrorists. If any "truce", "line of demarcation" and "withdrawal of the conflicting parties" are imposed, then all the work is in vain.
